Hi; Dear I am the robotics coordinator of the Georgian International Academy of Sciences. We are trying to expand the science of robotics, since we were familiar with the RoboCup Federation and were interested in its goals, we planned the work framework according to the RoboCup Federation competitions. Last year, we managed to prepare several teams and organized the local junior rescue maze and line league according to the rules of 2023 to compete with each other. Now we are very interested to have the winners of the local competitions in the Maze and Line League as a team to the World Championships in Holland. They have capable robots that can perform the tournament missions well. In Georgia, it is the only committee related to robotics in the GEORGIAN INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES, and it can issue recommendation letters for teams. We are also interested in being the regional representative of RoboCup. Therefore, I request you to help the teams to register. The registration and presence of these teams is very important in expanding the interest and knowledge of robotics in the country. Thank you very much for your help. Sincerely Dr. Habib Arasteh Assistant Professor
